EVERYDAY ETHICS - A LAYMAN’S GUIDE TO MORALITY In a world where morality is often tied to dogma, 'Everyday Ethics' challenges us to critically examine the foundations of our individual moral beliefs.Our moral compass is frequently based on perspectives and information that we have simply absorbed from the commonly held views of those around us, with little real research, or consideration or even questioning being given to the 'correctness' of those views. Many times, these morals are based on religious doctrine, which over the centuries, and often still today, has had detrimental impacts on many, and sometimes even our own lives. What if our values were not rooted in divine command, but only in human compassion, reason and empathy? Can we build a more equitable and compassionate society without relying on religious orthodoxy? What would society look like if we based our moral principles on humanism rather than religious authority? This thought-provoking exploration of secular ethics invites you to consider a moral framework that prioritizes human well-being, dignity and flourishing. 'Everyday Ethics' examines a number of moral issues relevant to our lives today, with the secular arguments for and against each topic presented in a concise and easy to access manner (with a little humour), with information, facts and perspectives for and against that encourage you to examine the validity of your own beliefs. We all seek to lead good lives. 'Everyday Ethics' will help to ensure that your beliefs and subsequent actions will contribute positively to the world we live in and to those around us.

    Immanuel Kant
    Kant’s Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals is one of the most important works in modern moral philosophy. It belongs beside Plato, Aristotle, Machiavelli, and Hobbes.

  • On the Duty of Civil Disobedience
    HENRY DAVID THOREAU
    Civil Disobedience argues that citizens should not permit their governments to overrule their consciences, and that they have a duty to avoid allowing their acquiescence to enable the government to make them the agents of injustice. Thoreau was motivated in part by his disgust with slavery and the Mexican-American War, but the sentiments he expresses here are just as pertinent ...
